Sutter'S Mill

In the Spring of Forty seven

  • In the Spring of Forty seven
  • So the story it is told
  • Old John Sutter went to the mill site
  • Found a piece of shining gold
  • Well he took it to the city
  • Where the word like wildfire spread
  • And old John Sutter soon came to wish he'd
  • Left that stone in the river bed
  • For they came like herds of locusts
  • Every woman child and man
  • In their lumbering Conestogas
  • They left their tracks upon the land
  • Some would fail and some would prosper
  • Some would die and some would kill
  • Some would thank the Lord for their deliverance
  • And some would curse John Sutter's Mill
  • Well they came from New York City
  • And they came from Alabam'
  • With their dreams of finding fortunes
  • In this wild unsettled land
  • Well some fell prey to hostile arrows
  • As they tried to cross the plains
  • And some were lost in the Rocky mountains
  • With their hands froze to the reins
  • Oh
  • Some would fail and some would prosper
  • Some would die and some would kill
  • Some would thank the Lord for their deliverance
  • And some would curse John Sutter's Mill
  • Some pushed on to California
  • And others stopped to take their rest
  • And by the Spring of Eighteen-sixty
  • They had opened up the west
  • And then the railroad came behind them
  • And the land was plowed and tamed
  • When Old John Sutter went to meet his maker
  • He'd not one penny to his name
  • Oh
  • Some would fail and some would prosper
  • Some would die and some would kill
  • Some would thank the Lord for their deliverance
  • And some would curse John Sutter's Mill
  • And some would curse John Sutter's Mill
  • Some men's thirsts are never filled
